JetBlue has joined the poaching effort to attract Delta Elites with their own Status Match called….Mosaic on the DL. LOL – I love the double entendre. The broad strokes is you’ll need to match by filling out an application, providing Delta elite status docs, and then once you do, you’ll be given your corresponding JetBlue Status through 12/31/23. In order to keep it you’ll need to either accumulate some Mosaic Tiles by the end of the year, or similar to the Alaska Status Match, simply add a Jet Blue credit card ( plus or business ) to your wallet. Let’s take a look at the details

JetBlue Status Match for Delta Elites

  • Match is limited to 30,000 applicants or it’ll end 10/31/23
    • whichever comes first

How do you earn tiles?

There are a few different ways to earn tiles, and you can see on their official chart below, but I broke down into the dollar amount you’d need to fulfill the status match via spend.

  • 6 tiles
    • $600 in spend on JetBlue Flights, JetBlue Vacation packages, Paisly by JetBlue ( Cars, stays, etc )
    • $6000 in credit card spend
  • 12 tiles
    • $1200 in spend on JetBlue Flights, JetBlue Vacation packages, Paisly by JetBlue ( Cars, stays, etc )
    • $12000 in credit card spend
  • 24 tiles
    • $2400 in spend on JetBlue Flights, JetBlue Vacation packages, Paisly by JetBlue ( Cars, stays, etc )
    • $24000 in credit card spend
  • 30 tiles
    • $3000 in spend on JetBlue Flights, JetBlue Vacation packages, Paisly by JetBlue ( Cars, stays, etc )
    • $30000 in credit card spend

  • 50 tiles for Mosaic 1,
  • 100 tiles for Mosaic 2,
  • 150 tiles for Mosaic 3,
  • 250 tiles for Mosaic 4

Overall

If you live in an area that is frequently serviced by JetBlue, and have elite status, why wouldn’t you match to JetBlue elite status and add their card to your wallet? Personally I’d add the business card to my wallet in order to keep it off my personal credit report, stay under 5/24, etc but it’s a free status that you could leverage in the future to status match elsewhere.
